FORT WAYNE – The state of Ohio is known to most as a football hotbed, but they also play basketball east of the Indiana state line.

If you need proof, look no further than Vince Edwards, Purdue’s freshman forward who’s quickly garnered national attention.

It took just two games for Edwards to earn Big Ten honors (freshman of the week) after a hot start that included 26 points and eight rebounds to go along with three blocks and a steal against IUPUI on Sunday. Through two games, he’s averaging 19.5 points, 8 rebounds and 1.5 blocks.
